Switzerland will play their second game against Norway at the FMG Stadium on Tuesday. After their convincing opening game victory, Switzerland will reach for all the points when they square off against a desperate Norwegian side who must obtain a win or risk being knocked out of the group phase.
Switzerland
FIFA Ranking: 20th
La Nati's side began their World Cup campaign with a (0-2) victory over the Philippines. After losing the opening game against Japan in their debut season in 2015, Switzerland got their second three points in the history of the tournament. Switzerland dominated from the start to the end, as Roman Bachmann and Serania Piubel were both on the scoresheet.
La Nati's team won for the first time in eight matches and are now leading the group. Before this game, Switzerland played seven games without a breakthrough, as they shared the spoils in five matches while losing three times. Switzerland also kept three clean sheets, conceding eight while scoring six times. Despite their impressive performance, it’s also great to point out that Switzerland played against a poorly constructed Philippine side and the fourth-lowest-ranked side in this competition. They’ll face a stern challenge when they square off against a more organized Norway tomorrow.
Norway
FIFA Ranking: 12th
One-time World Cup winner and Olympics champion Norway began their campaign with a shocking defeat as New Zealand defeated them (1-0) a few days ago. The Grasshoppers were the favorite to secure all the points; however, with the roaring support for the host, New Zealand pulled a surprise stunt against Norway. After a toothless halftime performance from both ends, the host nation drew the first blood when Hannah Wilkinson found the back of the net in the 48th minute. Norway surged forward to search for an equalizer and almost conceded the second goal after Ria Percival hit the post seconds before the final whistle. It was an even game with chances at both ends.
Norway lost their second opening game ever since their nine appearances in this tournament. Norway are one of the two teams to have won the World Cup tournament and the Olympics.
Norway have struggled over their previous five matches, with three defeats and two draws. It will be interesting to see how they respond here following their opening game display; however, it won’t be a walk in the park when they lock horns with Switzerland tomorrow.
Head-to-Head Statistics
Over their previous four meetings, Switzerland have won twice while Norway have recorded a victory and a game ending in a share of the spoils. Both sides have scored against each other in all their last meetings. Their matches have witnessed more than two goals.
Expert Betting Tips
Norway are in dire straits after their opening game display against New Zealand, and they must now win here to stand a chance of advancing. On the contrary, Switzerland will play confidently and might settle for a share of the spoils if needed. Norway have some serious players in their squad, Barcelona striker Caroline Hansen and Ada Hegerberg of Lyon, to mention a few, and we expect them to be getting goals. Switzerland's opening game victory doesn’t guarantee a win against their opponent tomorrow, and we believe Norway will give them a run for their money; bet on an away win or draw and over 1.5 goals for 1.81.
Both sides have players who are capable of scoring goals; bet on BTTS for 1.90.
We expect the Grasshoppers to secure all the points for 2.10.
Good luck!
